Going for an MOT

20 July 2008

Risking £45, I've put the car in for it's MOT. As it'll no doubt fail, I figure that at the very least I'll have a nice list of what absolutely has to be done to the car.

~~As it's still spewing hot oil from the top of the engine, and the air intake isn't actually connected to the engine,~~ there's a very good chance they'll simply laugh at it and fail it there and then. Still, I'll then have a month to put things right before I go for a free retest.

As an aside, the tester at local specialists ASAP looks at the daily list of cars to test, and suggests whether they'll pass or fail before even seeing the car. The Safrane's down as a fail...
